Chapter 29, Surrender, Killed and End

After the surrender representatives of the chamber of commerce escorted back, the thugs soon walked out from behind the bunker of wooden boxes blocking the road.

They placed the various weapons in their hands on the ground, and then sat down on the ground.

After receiving instructions from Knight Crow, Kil immediately led the melee militiamen and walked up with the rope in his hand. On the wall facing here behind, militiamen with crossbows in hand were holding down Kiel and the others to guard against any plots by the other party.

But it doesn't.

Use a dagger to cut the long bundle of rope, and then tie the hands of the Chamber of Commerce thugs and Chamber of Commerce guys who were looking at them in fear on the ground tightly.

Subsequently, the weapons of those people were also collected.

After finishing these tasks, Keir led people into the center of the village.

In the direction of the center of the village where the militiamen were attacking, several senior stewards of the Ska Chamber of Commerce were waiting for Kiel and the others with their hands folded, and behind each steward stood two chamber of commerce guards.

Seeing that these chamber of commerce guards still had weapons in their hands, Keir shouted at them to put down their weapons.

The guards looked at their respective masters, and the senior stewards of the Chamber of Commerce, with ugly faces, wanted to say something to the soldier leading the team, Kiel.

Pointing the spear in his hand at these people, Kil scolded coldly: "Once again, if you surrender, you must remove your weapons, otherwise it will mean that you will fight against us. Put down your weapons!"

The deadly militiamen behind them also shouted: "Put down your weapons!"

"This is our last resort of dignity and protection. Please allow our guards to remain minimally armed."

An old steward of the Ska Chamber of Commerce saluted Kiel and the others and spoke in a pleading tone.

Kiel knew that these people would die soon, so he had to disarm at this moment, so he continued to yell: "Put down your weapons!"

But the young militiamen behind him, faced with the obviously high-status old man opposite him, spoke to them in such a pleading tone that it was difficult for them to put down their weapons.

Kil turned his head and glanced at them, still insisting: "Put down your weapons!"

After he finished speaking, he paused the spear on the ground.

Boom!

Several senior managers of the Ska Chamber of Commerce on the opposite side were still very frightened when they looked at Kil's full-body armor stained red with blood and suspicious liquid.

That's how many people had to kill before the armor on their bodies was dyed red tonight.

And even old bones like them can clearly sense the blazing killing intent.

The old steward and several others looked at each other, and finally said: "Let's do this. We will take off our weapons to represent our surrender. But how about the guards please keep at least one weapon? For someone as powerful as you, how about this?" Soldiers, you shouldn’t take the Chamber of Commerce guards with only one weapon seriously, right?”

Kil was about to speak, but was interrupted by Knight Crow's voice.

Accompanied by the clatter of two horses' hooves, two horses, one light and one heavy, came over.

In the front, the knight riding a huge steel-armored horse was Knight Crow, and behind him was the son-in-law of the Gurov family, the fat Mr. Huberock, who had both cold sweat and excitement on his face.

At this time, Mr. Huberock was trembling with excitement. He did not expect that the matter that had troubled him for several years would actually end in one night.

He wiped the sweat on his head with a silk handkerchief that had been soaked with sweat. His lips, which were much smaller than his fat face, kept opening and closing, not knowing what he wanted to say.

But he didn't dare to speak because Knight Crow was talking.

"Who are you? How dare you ask for surrender after defeat like the nobles? It's ridiculous. They are just a group of armed chambers of commerce illegally occupying the ruled villages. Originally, according to the laws of the kingdom, they intercepted the taxes of the owner's territory without the qualifications of nobles. Then But it's a capital crime. It's punishable by hanging by the Lord Magistrate of the Circuit Court."

Knight Crow stretched out his hand and pointed at these people from a distance: "I made you surrender, which is an exception to exempt you from the death penalty, but you still want to keep the escort armed? Kil, go up and hand over their weapons!"

"Yes, Lord Knight!"

As soon as Kil's words came out, several senior managers of the Ska Chamber of Commerce on the opposite side realized who their real opponent was tonight, a knight.

And Hugh Birock was following him!

Hubirok was the former manager of Withered Leaf Village. The Ska Chamber of Commerce drove him away and occupied this place, so they naturally knew each other. After the other party was driven away, although he was harassed by others at first, after being beaten several times, the other party no longer appeared near Dry Leaf Village.

Even if they met in Pine Needle Town, the other person would just walk by with his head lowered.

How could they have imagined that this guy would actually follow a knight and defeat them at night.

"It's you! Are these the knights and soldiers you found? Where did they come from? Tell me!"

Among the senior stewards of the Ska Chamber of Commerce, a middle-aged steward looked directly at Hubirok and shouted.

But he was immediately pushed to the ground by Kiel: "Shut up and hand over your weapons."

Seeing that these people were still lingering, Kil turned his spear back to his companions behind him, and then he took off the weapons from these guards.

"Take off all the leather armor on your body too!"

"Sir, this leather armor is my own property!"

Some guards refused to take off their protective equipment.

"Choose one between life and property?"

Kil kicked the tough-talking guard down, then grabbed the collar of his clothes with his hands and said.

Looking at the slightly red eyes behind the steel helmet visor, the guard was immediately frightened. Although he was older than Kil and a little taller, this man clearly felt at this time that if he was wrong, If you do something wrong, you will definitely die next.

"I, I'll take it off. I'll just take it off."

Seeing that the man had given in, Kil pushed him away, and then removed all the weapons from the guards one by one.

The weapons of these people are basically much better than those of the thugs, and most of them are fully equipped with protective equipment, which is much better than the body protection of the thugs who wear animal skin clothes at most.

Keir secretly assessed that if a fight really broke out, how many of them could he deal with by himself?

Three? Four? Four, maybe.

The main reason is that after the enemies join forces, the pressure during the battle will double. Although wearing such a suit of armor, they are not afraid of being slashed by the swords on these people, but there are many people on the other side. Once they throw him to the ground and control him, then Ruined.

After all these people were unarmed, two militiamen carried them away in a car. All the things captured in tonight's battle belong to the Kendall people. As for other things, Knight Crow was more restrained and only allowed the militiamen to simply search. I took a look at the coins on the dead and surrendered people, as well as money boxes and other things from the shops in Pine Needle Town.

The goods and merchandise were not moved. The militiamen took one or two away, but he didn't care. As long as you don't affect the battle, you can take as much as you like.

This is one of the reasons why these militiamen are willing to follow the nobles out to fight.

Knight Crow saw an old man who died beside him. Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he looked like the other senior officials of the Ska Chamber of Commerce, so he asked what happened.

"Just a moment ago, when we were discussing surrender, he had a verbal conflict with another senior steward of the Chamber of Commerce. The other stabbed him with a self-defense dagger and then ran away. Several dead and injured guards nearby, He is the personal bodyguard of the two of them."

A senior steward of the Chamber of Commerce explained it to Knight Crow. After that, like everyone else, they all stared at Mr. Huberock.

They boldly spoke a few words to Xubirok, and immediately learned from him the origins of Crow Knight and the others, and why they were involved in the affairs of Pine Needle Town.

It turned out that this knight and the master of the army happened to borrow Gulov's territory today and spent the night at the old Gulov knight's place. Unexpectedly, the baron who commanded the army turned out to be a family friend of the old Gulov. He generously lent his troops at the banquet to wipe out the power of the Ska Chamber of Commerce in Pine Needle Town and Dead Leaf Village.

They heard that before coming to Dead Leaf Village, the streets where the Ska Chamber of Commerce was based in Pine Needle Town had been cleared.

This shattered all the last hopes of several people.

The president has taken his people to the east to do business. He won't be able to come back for a month or two. When the other party comes back, they don't know how much torture they will suffer.

"Hubert Rock, can we use our property to buy our freedom?"

Someone asked.

But Hubirok just wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, holding back a weird smile, and secretly looked at the silent Knight Crow next to him.

Knight Crow was supervising the militiamen to find some of the loose money owned by the Ska Chamber of Commerce and transport it to a carriage that they found from nowhere.

There is no time to pay attention to these people.

Seeing that Hubirok did not respond to this issue, these businessmen finally understood who they should look for at this time and who could make a final decision.

"My lord knight. Excuse me?"

But before he really asked what he wanted to ask, Knight Crow only glanced at these people, and then ordered Keir to lead people to escort these people away.

The people whose arms were tied were yelling and being roughly held together with their thugs, and they all squatted in an open space.

Before these people could react, Knight Crow waved his hand and ordered the militiamen on the separate side to use crossbows to shoot.

"Shoot them all on the ground. Don't think too much and just take turns."

After giving the order, a small number of militiamen directly raised their crossbows and fired arrows. Most of the militiamen saw that their comrades had already taken action, and then they followed suit, shooting at the more than 20 surrendered people who were tied up with ropes without taking more aim.

"Ah! How could this happen! Stop! Stop!"

"We surrender! We can't do this!"

"Spare your life! Spare your life! Spare your life!"

"No! Uh..."

"vomit……"

"I don't want to die."

More than 20 people were shot and wounded in a matter of seconds, but not all of them were dead. After the shooting stopped, Kiel walked up with a long gun, held the long gun upside down, and killed all the surviving and injured Ska Chamber of Commerce members. All the remaining people were stabbed to death on the ground.

The blood soaked the gravel on the ground. After the Ska Chamber of Commerce came, they invested in paving the road in the village. In the end, it also became the mattress on which these people slept when they died.

From the church window in the distance, a Shepherd with green eyes looked at the deaths of those merchants and his men, as well as the faintly sensed power of the Saturn in the soldiers who took action at the end. He shook his head heavily, clasped his hands, and prayed to the god. Pray and report what he has seen.

In another church of the God of Wealth, the nervous pastor tightened his hold on the long stick in his hand. After taking a last look at the businessmen who had just talked yesterday and developed the village and the chamber of commerce, all the businessmen who had developed the village and the chamber of commerce were killed. He closed the door of the church tightly. , asked the novice priest to move chairs to block the door. He stood in the middle of the empty church hall, praying to God for blessings together with the sobbing family members of the Ska Chamber of Commerce businessmen around him.

Pray that nothing cruel will happen to them.

-

Perhaps the gods really did something that night. After the killing soldiers handed over with another wave of people who arrived in the village in the early morning, they sang songs, carried their spears, and walked away happily.

The shepherd of the God of Wealth saw through the cracks in the church window that the new arrivals were from other chambers of commerce in the town. He knew the flags of every chamber of commerce nearby, and could clearly see that the people coming from the chamber of commerce were all It was the chamber of commerce that was closer to the Gulov family in the past.

He exhaled heavily, finally knowing what happened last night.

If it was just the old Knight Gurov who found someone to clear out the chamber of commerce that offended him in his territory, then everything would be fine.

Not the worst situation.

However, he turned around and looked at the dozen or so businessmen's family members, women and children gathered on chairs in the center of the church hall, sleeping drowsily, and was troubled again.

"Hey, you'd better pray more. The great Lord will find a way. At this moment, I can only ask the Lord for His grace and mercy."

He walked over and continued to guide the tired and sad people to pray to the God of Wealth.

-

Kiel and the others drove the donkey and the truck they found from the Ska Chamber of Commerce warehouse. Although they were tired, they were in particularly good spirits and embarked on the return journey.

They will rush from the Dead Leaf Village to the camp outside the old Gulov Knight's manor before dawn.

The sentries guarding the camp looked at these murderous companions in surprise, and asked them in surprise what they had done last night.

Knight Crow snorted coldly, and the sentry immediately closed his mouth.

"It will be daybreak soon, why don't you blow the trumpet to wake up the people?" the knight said, and then led everyone to the center of the camp, and told the logistics personnel who had been summoned, so that the militiamen who went out to fight last night would rest on the logistics vehicles during the day. . Join the march again in the afternoon.

"Don't sleep. Take off your weapons and equipment and give them to the logistics. They will find water to clean the weapons and equipment. Then eat and rest. Everyone, go and take off your weapons and equipment first, and then wait for your meal."

What Knight Crow said was actually to give everyone a chance to go back and count and pack up what they had gained tonight.

As for the things that the militiamen took away except coins, they could sell them to the merchants following the army during the rest of the march during the day.

Although you will get ripped off, there is no money to carry around the goods.

Kil followed Knight Crow to their camp.

Knight Crow's horse also had many valuable-looking things that Kiel and the militia handed over last night, including unknown metals in boxes, gemstone jewelry, the magic dagger 'Heartfire', etc.

Most of Kiel's seizures were weapons and equipment from the enemies he killed.

He found a bag to put the money in, and he found a box to put the enemy's weapons and equipment. After dragging horses from the truck back to his tent, Keir directly put these things on his small carriage, and simply used Once the rope is tied, forget about it.

He himself held the steel sword that looked good to him, burrowed into the tent, and took off the armor that was full of dried blood bit by bit. He held the sword himself, and then entered the dreamland. .

-

The dark and lightless dream forest is still quite cold.

Kil was wearing iron armor, holding a steel sword and walking quickly towards the source pond of the colorful river.

Exhaling cold air as he walked, Kil walked over at a much faster speed than usual, and immediately took off the inner armor he was wearing in the open space by the pond.

Even if this inner armor is worn inside the armor, many places are still soaked with blood. After it dries, the blood-coagulated residue falls rustlingly down.

Taking off the inner armor that smelled of blood, Kil came to a bucket he had brought in, wetted it with a clean cloth, and wiped it briefly.

Wipe the sweat and fatigue off your body.

Kil immediately put on the clothes he had left here last night. When he looked for the hard cowhide armor from before, he found that his armor had fallen scattered around the pond.

"Nasty goblin."

He shook his head, cursed, and went around the pond to pick up the leather armor that the goblins had taken away for fun.

Pick one up and wear one on your body.

Put one on and curse.

After a while, the old goblin cursed by Kil floated out of the surrounding moss angrily.

The other party boldly floated in front of Kiel, gesticulating with dancing gestures, as if asking why Kiel was insulting it.

Kil nodded with a face: "I still have to wear this armor. You can just touch it and see. Why do you have to leave them everywhere? I'm already annoyed enough. I killed them last night." There are so many people, and now they are being bullied by you. How ridiculous!"

The little goblin huffed angrily, waving its hands and using various movements to express its meaning.

Kil seemed to understand: "What do you mean? You forgot to put it back after playing, and you still blame me, right? Hey! What's the point of this?"

The goblins were confident, as if their purpose of existence was to make things messy, and they were very proud of it.

"Ms. Apolifina told me that goblins are an important support to the elves and can bring a lot of help. Okay, I'm not an elf, so you just make trouble for me and bully me. There's nothing you can do about it, right?" the lady said. You want to help me, but when have you ever helped me? It’s just causing trouble."

Although the goblin is still very proud, it seems that after causing trouble, its life is very complete. But when Keel mentioned the lady's name, the little thing became embarrassed.

It seems that I just remembered the lady’s previous explanation.

As soon as Gululu's khaki eyes rolled, it grinned and laughed with a hissing sound.

Kil ignored it and put the leather armor he picked up on his body while squinting at this small and mischievous bad thing.

Who knows what's going on with this guy.

After putting on his armor, Kil moved a wooden chair to the open space to rest for a while and took a nap.

Anyway, the time rules here are very strange. When he is here, the time in the outside world hardly changes.

After taking a nap, he put away the inner armor of his iron armor and carried it on his back.

After thinking about it for a while, he placed the two-handed ax of the 'Overwater Head' that had not been used last night on the shelf where he stored weapons and equipment.

This little thing seems to be quite afraid of this ax. If it is placed here, the goblin will not come close.

Before leaving, Kil pointed at the goblins flying around him: "Don't cause trouble, I will come here again soon."

The goblin ignored him and disappeared with a swaying pop.

"Just leave."

In an instant, Kil returned to his tent.

After putting the blood-stained armor into its own wooden armor box, Kil also threw the inner armor in, preparing to find time to find someone to clean the inner armor. It was full of the smell of sweat and blood.

Carrying the heavy wooden box, Kil walked out of his tent and loaded the wooden box of armor into the car. His tent was simply dismantled into a ball and put into the carriage.

Kil yawned, said hello to Knight Crow's guards, and went out to find a place to eat in the camp.
